The bride at this Star Wars wedding, photographed by Justin Winokur, made a similar choice, opting to wear a white sci-fi inspired gown while her Mon Calamari groom and Princess Leia priestess helped make sure the theme was totally clear.

Rivendell Bridal is a company that bases many of their lovely dress designs on famous female characters from classic stories, such as Titania (A Midsummer Night’s Dream) and Guinevere (the King Arthur myths). They used to theme all the dresses and their names after the Lord of the Rings series, but have since stopped this practice (possibly over copyright issues). The dresses can all be customized and many come in a variety of colors. Here is one of their creations, worn by Norwegian bride Elizabeth.

Brenda and Rob love sci-fi, which is why they chose to incorporate Firefly, Star Wars and Doctor Who into their wedding. The couple even managed to get one of their invitations signed by the creator of Firefly, Mr. Joss Whedon. While all of that is pretty cool, it’s Brenda’s beautiful dress inspired by Firefly’s Inara that qualifies the couple for this list.

Floridian couple Scott and Molly had a pirate-themed wedding that was quite elegant. The wedding and reception were held on a pirate ship that sailed through the waters of the Gulf of Mexico and guests could not attend unless they were in costume. As for the bride’s stunning wench dress, it was custom made by her friend Luis Ortiz.

Speaking of historical gowns, Flickr user MrsCherry and her husband were actually married at a Renaissance Fair, so it was only fitting that the wedding party dressed appropriately. Here is the beautiful bride with her maid of honor, both in perfect period attire.

Anja and Lutz are both into live action role playing (LARPing) and they wanted their wedding to reflect their interest in history. The couple created every piece of their Tudor-inspired outfits themselves, with the exception of their shoes. As an extra bonus, the couple and all of their friends were able to reuse their outfits in future LARP events.

If this dress looks familiar to any of you gamers out there, that’s probably because it’s closely based on the clothing of Rydia from Final Fantasy IV. Bride Kouhotaru got together with cosplay designer Catherine of God Save the Queen Fashions to create this beautiful dress based on Rydia’s distinctive style. The result was a beautiful and fitting tribute that could actually be used as a wedding dress (unlike anything the character herself ever wore).

While plenty of people have Star Wars weddings, Nada’s dress here is unique in that it perfectly captures the fashion style of the movies without actually directly copying any outfits seen in the films. Of course, it was good to have some clothing pulled from the series, including the groom’s Jedi robes and the adorable flower girl’s Princess Leia outfits.

Hello Kitty has actually designed its own line of wedding dresses, but even more impressive is this adorable gown worn by the curator of the Hello Kitty Museum in Germany, complete with a kitty bodice and a skirt adorned with 3D kitties and strawberries. Of course, having Hello Kitty herself at the wedding only makes it that much more geektastic.

No one has actually gotten married in this particular gown, but with over 24,000 colored LED lights embroidered across its silk surface it’s certainly geeky and gorgeous enough to earn its place on this list. The design by futuristic textile company Cute Circuit is on display at the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago. If any of you brides-to-be have enough money, you could probably convince Cute Circuit to create an LED dress just for you, like they did for Livia and Magnus.

Whatever your feelings about steampunk, there’s no denying that the Jules Verne-inspired, retro-futuristic fashion is definitely geeky. While there are plenty of steampunk wedding photos out there, Adrianna’s is special in that it is far more than just a corset with a nice skirt underneath. The lovely gown and all of her jewelry were created by Nancy Wong of Aerisk Fashion.
